I've had a bad case of thrush since last week. It is very painful to swallow. I haven't been able to meet the nourishment and water min. req. I had a picc-line put in today. 2nd chemo tomorrow, cisplatin, lesser dose than first. I would think it will be harder on me due to lack of nutr. and water. They will give me more fluids to begin with. I am having a PEG inserted Wed.
